An Australian Artist and her Poodle Muse

So you think you can’t paint? Yes you can!

If you think you can’t paint, then I say you can! These are three of the Fashion Illustration in Watercolour exercises I’ve prepared for my students this Saturday at the Workshop in Sydney. Im totally excited, not only to meet my students, have a cup of tea with them while I teach them to paint, but also for the five glorious uninterrupted hours of making art!!! This is a luxury I NEVER have at home, too many children with sticky fingers pawing at me to get any work done!

Well, I shall leave the kids with my darling husband and head off to teach those lovely people how to paint this weekend. These are all beginners exercises, they look harder than what they seem. Each exercise I will take the student step by step and show them the tricks of the trade in watercolour, focusing on the fashion image – handbags, shoes, and pretty ladies of course!
